PRODUCT INFORMATION
CLOPYRALID MEA AG herbicide is recommended for selective, postemergence control of broadleaf weeds and select woody brush species in asparagus, barley, oats and wheat not under seeded with a legume, canola, Christmas tree plantations, fallow cropland, field corn, garden beet, grasses grown for seed, mint (spearmint and peppermint), popcorn, spinach, stone fruits, sugar beet, sweet corn, turnip, cottonwood/poplar and eucalyptus tree plantations, rangeland and permanent grass pastures, conservation reserve program (CRP) acres, and non-cropland areas including fence rows, around farm buildings, equipment pathways, industrial manufacturing and storage sites, forest sites, and rights-of-way (such as along roadsides, electrical lines and railroads). Use on these sites may include application to grazed areas as well as establishment and maintenance of wildlife openings, wild parkland and wildlife management areas, and forest spot application adjacent to these sites.

PRECAUTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS
• In California, the maximum application rate for CLOPYRALID MEA AG is 2/3 pint per acre per growing season. Do not exceed a cumulative amount of 2/3 pint (0.25 Ib active ingredient (a.i.) of clopyralid per acre per crop year.
• In New York State - Not for sale, use or distribution in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. The maximum application rate for CLOPYRALID MEA AG is 2/3 pint per acre (0.25 Ib. active equivalent of clopyralid) per acre per crop year.
• Do not contaminate irrigation ditches or water used for irrigation or domestic purposes.
• CLOPYRALID MEA AG may be applied by aircraft on the following crops: spinach, canola (rapeseed), crambe and sugar beets. Do not apply CLOPYRALID MEA AG by aircraft to other crops.
• Do not use in greenhouses.
• Chemigation: Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
• Re-treatment is allowed, but do not apply more than the maximum allowable rate per crop growing season. An application to fallow cropland preceding or following an application to dryland small grains, (wheat, barley or oats) is allowed, but is not allowed preceding or following an application to irrigated small grains.
• Do not transfer livestock from treated grazing areas (or feeding of treated hay) to sensitive broadleaf crop areas without first allowing 7 days of grazing on an untreated pasture (or feeding of treated hay). If livestock are transferred within less than 7 days of grazing untreated pasture or eating untreated hay, urine and manure may contain enough clopyralid to cause injury to sensitive broadleaf plants.
• Field Bioassay Instructions: In fields previously treated with this product, plant short test rows of the intended rotational crop across the original direction of application. The test area should sample field conditions such as soil texture, soil pH, drainage, and any other variable that could affect the seed bed of the new crop. The field bioassay can be initiated at any time between harvest of the treated crop and the planting of the rotational crop. Observe the test crop for herbicidal activity, such as poor stand (effect on seed germination) chlorosis (yellowing), and necrosis (dead leaves or shoots), or stunting (reduced growth). If herbicidal symptoms do not occur, the test crop can be grown. If there is apparent herbicidal activity, do not plant the field to the test rotational crop; pfant only a labeled crop or crop listed in the table above for which the rotational interval has clearly been met.
• In Arizona: The state of Arizona has not approved CLOPYRALID MEA AG foriise on plants grown for agricultural/commercial production; such as on designated grazing areas.
• Use of this product in Oregon is limited to the sites stated on this label which1 are agricultural, forest and right-of-way. 
• In Florida, CLOPYRALID MEA AG can be used only in the following counties: Bay, Bradford, Calhoun, Escambia, Franklin, Gadsden, Gulf, Hamilton, Jackson, Jefferson, L,afayette, Leon, Liberty, Madison, Okaloosa, Santa Rosa, Suwanee, Taylor, Wakulla, Walton and Washington.
• Rotation to Broadleaf Crops: Do not plant broadleaf crops in treated areas until an adequately sensitive bioassay shows that no detectable clopyralid is present in the soil.
• Grazing/Haying: There are no restrictions on grazing or hay harvest following application of CLOPYRALID MEA AG at labeled rates.
• Some desirable broadleaf plants (forbs) are susceptible to CLOPYRALID MEA AG. Do not spray pastures containing desirable forbs, especially legumes, unless injury can be tolerated. However, the stand and growth of established perennial grasses is usually improved after treatment, especially if rainfall is adequate for active plant growth and grazing is deferred.
• Grasses are tolerant to CLOPYRALID MEA AG, but new grass seedlings may be injured to varying degrees until well established as evidenced by development of secondary roots and tillering (multiple stems).
• Do not use hay or straw from treated areas for composting or mulching on susceptible broadleaf crops.
